A wannabe
painted in glass
breakable, untouchables
in a cast iron red as rust heart
Scalding hot
to the touch
she’s just too much
red like poison
in the wine she drank
No longer the staring role
just mundane and greedy
for someone to want
a piece of the glitter
she leaves behind,
annoying to most
charming to none.
